Love is real, But the way we understand it and channel it in our mental and physical lives may or may not be sane or healthy. Love is everywhere, and it does not always come from people. Two people in a relationship are each fragments of inspiration, so if they define love only in relation to each other, it restricts the meaning it can have to an infinitesimal fragment of reality. Relationship is not always needed for love. A woman may be a beautiful face of the future but relationship with them be oppressive and unreliable to the point that it they would even be better off for both to be single; that is, if they actually respect the woman.

As for “the one,” I myself would have to see them in a variety real life situations (not just a date) to make that determination.

Wise words there :thumbsup: we don’t have to be in a relationship to figure out if we’re in love as reciprocating a feeling with another person does not always happen. Ironically there are times that who we love does not love us at allslaphead have you ever felt love on line? How true were your feelings?waving

@ Sceptical, thank you :) I have done quite a lot of readings in a short time. I decided to take a break this weekend.
But I'm glad to hear you like them!

Real Thing
By
Kalapana

Here comes the night
Once again
I'll be feeling lonely
Oh, if only things could work out like you plan
Where can love be
Tell me why it's so hard to find somebody
Who will stand by me
And take the time to understand
And show me love again
I want the real thing
Or nothing at all
I need someone that I can be sure will catch me
If I should fall
Someone who'll be there when I call
Then I'll know that it's the real thing
I want the real thing
To warm me each night
Someone to love me over and over
Making the future bright
Somebody who will make it all right
Just give me the real thing
Where is the moon?
Won't it smile
On just one more dreamer
Let your beams come down
And fill my empty room
Here comes the night
But if there's still a chance
That love can find me
I'll be here
Crossing my fingers
I want to know for sure
That I can feel secure
Knowing I've found an everlasting love
And once I get that under control
Then I won't let go

I don't think that a man who really really really isn't willing to travel would even approach a woman who lives far away? After all, your profile will make that clear right away.
Like my ex, he didn't want someone who lived further away because he had been there before. But what I exuded inspired and intrigued him so much that he went for it regardless. He was thinking solutions.
I really think if a man feels that spark for you, feel there's something that could potentially be what he's looking for, he will move heaven and earth to get to meeting. And sure, that may mean it takes a month or maybe 2 depending what the obstacle is.


Thanks Crystal.

So the dreamy looking single man I met at work (he was a guest who came to breakfast 4 days in a row) who kept striking up conversation with me, gave me a hug goodbye and said hope to see you next year... Left and 20 minutes later came in to give me his email....I guess that's considered a man who's really into you?

How soon should I email him? smitten

Well, if you're interested in him, I wouldn't wait too long. Send him a nice playful message, not a question but a statement, then see what he comes up with.
And mind your boundaries, by which I mean that if there is going to be contact between you and it becomes clear he has no intention of seeing you before that next year, you are likely better off cutting it off so you can focus on men who are available, and closer to you :)

so... he said 'see you next year'...Sounds like he's a salesman or businessman type.. did you notice a band on his finger? I agree with CrysalFairy

Ok let’s start with an on line scenario:

We both signed up in the same dating app. You checked out my profile then I checked out your account too blushing we post in the forums and at a distance we observe how each other is by the way we express our thoughts and by the way we communicate with others. We got more interested and one of us sends that first message which later turned out to be the start of so many more. Days go by we like each other even more we start to feel that elusive connection we both yearn for. Then suddenly messaging wasn’t enough we wanted to see each other and video was the next step. Gosh we liked each other even more . What we saw just made the attraction even better. We admit to each other that we like each other more. Then video chat would later on not suffice anymore. We want the real thing , yearn for the real thing.

So my question goes:
Dear mingle men.....when and how do you know that what you feel is the real thing already when you haven’t even met the girl personally? Is there a time frame that makes you realise yes she is the one? When do you realise it’s more than infatuation? Do you sort of do a test to know your true feelings and hers too? Is there a certain level of love that you feel that makes you want to be serious with a girl and would want to spend happily ever after? Basically these questions are about the on line stuff which I know is quite different from the real world. I would appreciate your opinions and personal experiences without any judgements.

Thank you all in advance flowerforyou


If it's someone living close to home, the sooner a meeting is arranged the better if you are both happy to meet each other. Someone living a distance away is very different, for me it would be about friendship first, it would be good to learn more about each other, but until we actually meet and want to date one another, it would never be anything more than that.

No, those weren't his exact words. He said he'll be here the first week in February and that he hopes to see me. We were talking about my doing seasonal work, and he mentioned maybe we'd show up at the same dude ranch sometime, he's thinking about trying it a couple times because he takes care of horses in Iowa.

He gave me his email so we could keep in touch and maybe work it out to be at the same place.

There are many men online willing to travel Just to meet a woman, they have interest in for potential Relationship.

I ve met a few men who would travel here! Nice dates but I wasn't in love. I took a online break. Now back!

Met them on dating Relationship site. Not Mingle.

Point is men do still travel for love! :smile:

Guess it depends on particular person and case, but for me it became pretty clear, when we started to call each other after intensive messaging .. it's all about how do you feel .. what your gut feeling says .. when sharing your thoughts and dreams with a female being you've never met before .. and suddenly realising that she feels exactly the same, and even more .. like your missing half. When giving makes more joy than receiving .. and her responses make your heart beating and palms sweat .. yeah, you might laugh, guys, but if the girl is able to turn you into a teenager again, it's pretty much real - believe the old fool, lol.
I'd say you can't put everything in words .. trying to explain inexplicable .. there's still too much unknown for us, but if you trust your basic instincts and your inner self .. keeping your head cool, you should be on the right track, imho

Yay!!!!! Sis , I do think you should explore this possibility and I don’t see why you can’t write to him soon. I know you can express your interest very subtly without giving him too much of an idea winking I say go for it sisshades no more what ifs. I hope the butterflies and fluffy feelings soon fill up your days flowerforyou

Should I don’t believe love on line anymore? There would always be the distance factor therefore hard to really have the actual consistent dating. I know it takes more than just a few dates and a lot of patience . It’s harder enough in person all the more long distance. Thanks for the advice :thumbsup:

It was pretty cool Sis, first time in a long time that someone showed interest in me, or at least that I paid attention to it, lol.

He just wants to keep in touch about were we end up, and maybe we might end up at the same ranch. I couldn't give him my email or go for a walk with him because I'm staff and he was a guest. It's against the rules and unethical. slaphead

But accepting his email and writing after he's no longer a guest I suppose would be okay bigsmile

Mr B waving your opinion is actually something I have been wanting to hear but fear I am just with my head in the clouds . So, there is still hope , there are still men like you, men who let themselves feel deeply and take that risk . Men who believe that anything can work out if two people are in sync or even if not can have the patience to see things through. I am so hopeful and happy for you and her . I will pray for that happily ever after for you guys smittensmittensmitten and that you both have found the real thing :heart:
